My Favorite Way to Make Air Fryer Frozen Egg Rolls
Whether you are a fan of pork egg rolls, chicken egg rolls, or vegetable egg rolls, you are going to love these simple air frying instructions. When you cook frozen egg rolls in an air fryer, they crisp up beautifully on the outside while cooking nicely and evenly on the inside.
I especially like the fact that we can achieve that lovely golden brown color without a ton of excess oil from deep frying. The result is lighter, crispier egg rolls that are ready in the blink of an eye. No mess and no guilt. It’s hard to beat that!
How to Cook Frozen Egg Rolls in Air Fryer
STEP ONE: Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees F.
STEP TWO: Place frozen egg rolls in the air fryer in a single layer without any touching or overlap.
STEP THREE: Cook for 8-10 minutes, until browned and crispy.
STEP FOUR: Remove from the air fryer basket and set aside to cool for 2-3 minutes. The insides will still be quite hot, so use caution. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Air Fryer Frozen Egg Rolls
- Be sure to preheat your air fryer for crispy, golden brown results every time.
- Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket or overlap the egg rolls. To air fry properly, hot air needs to be able to move freely around the food being cooked.
- There is no need to flip halfway through cooking. Air frying gets all sides crispy and evenly cooked.
- Worried about the undercooked egg rolls? Use an instant-read thermometer! It’s an easy way to avoid unpleasant surprises.
